Samsung HMX-S15BN - Manual (Page 33)

23
The figures below are based on a fully charged battery at a normal temperature.
Low ambient temperature may affect the use time.
Battery capacity decreases over time and through repeated use. Keep the camcorder turned off
while not operating it.
Store the battery separately when finished charging or when not using it for a long time. This will
help extend the life of the battery.
The battery is charged over 95% after about 2 hours, and the indicator color changes to green. It
takes about 2 hours and 40 minutes for the battery to charge 100%. •

The recording and playback times will be shorter when you use your camcorder in low temperatures.
We recommend using the AC power adaptor when using the Time Lapse REC function.
Continuous Recording (without zoom)
The continuous recording time above shows the available recording time when you record without using any
other function after recording starts.
The battery pack may discharge 2-3 times faster than this reference if you use the record start/stop frequently
and the zoom functions, and then playback your recordings. Prepare additional charged battery pack(s) to
cover the time you are planning to record on the camcorder.
